For most married couples, the days leading up to the wedding are exciting and full of happiness and idealized visions of future life together. But during marriage, a husband and wife can expect both bitter and sweet times. Conflicts are inevitable. Sometimes conflicts can become intense, repetitive, or even drag on for far too long. Since conflicts are unavoidable, what’s most important is how you handle them. If you feel your current tract may be leading to divorce, it’s time to try another. Next time a conflict occurs, rather than falling into old patterns, first take a step back and reminisce about the good times you’ve had together. Before saying anything else, before making any decisions based on worked-up emotion, one of the wisest things to do is calm down and self-reflect. Self-reflection. What’s that mean? It means rather than focus on the other person’s faults, first think about your own; think about how you can do better, or what are you not doing enough of? • Thi...

A lot of the research on nightmares suggests these events test the strength of one’s mind. If the mind is not strong, nightmares can take hold with greater force and the torment can extend beyond one’s dreams. Dr. Patrick McNamara of the Boston University School of Medicine looks at nightmares in a modern clinical context that also takes into account the history of dream phenomena in many cultures. He connects nightmares with a world of malevolent spirits. Spirit Possession Some people who experience frequent nightmares, both today and throughout history, also show signs in waking life of mental illness and even what may be seen as spirit possession. Dr. McNamara seems unabashed in speaking about spirit possession. “Nightmares very often involve supernatural characters that attack or target the dreamer in some way. I mean monsters, creatures, demons, spirits, unusual animals, and the like,” Dr. McNamara said in an interview with Boston University’s alumni publicat...

You can turn an egg into an omelet, but you can’t turn an omelet into an egg. Take a moment to ponder the implications of that in forming a definition of time. Canadian musician Sam Roberts sings, “Time is a slippery fish.” The understanding of time is certainly hard to grasp. Philosophers and even linguists have as much right to define it as do physicists. Here’s a look at some attempts to peg the concept of time (by no means a comprehensive list of such attempts), some fascinating facts about time as we understand it, and a look at the world without it. Blame the Mess on Time In the 1870s, Austrian physicist Ludwig Boltzmann associated time with disorder. Physicist Sean Carroll explained in a   2010 interview with Wired : “If you neatly stack papers on your desk, and you walk away, you’re not surprised they turn into a mess. You’d be very surprised if a mess turned into neatly stacked papers. “Basically, our observable universe begins around 13.7 billion years ago ...

Believe it or not, but studies have shown that around 85% of people applying for a job eliminate themselves in a basic way. They apply for the wrong job, have typos in their resume, use generic cover letters, show up late for the interview, and more. This fact is actually good news for you! You’d only be competing against the 15% that do things right. It takes nothing more than a little time and effort to get things right, but it makes all the difference when landing a job. Research : Conduct intensive research about any company in which you have an interest before attending an interview. ·           Read past press coverage. – Learn about its products and/or services. ·           Get some basic knowledge about the industry and learn their trends. ·           Read customer feedback about its products, and learn about its strengths and weakness...

After interviewing gurus that counsel both men and women on dating, we noticed something that was quite curious. Some of their dating advice was actually gender-neutral and could be applied to both sexes. As we see it, good advice is good advice. Here are the top five dating tips for both men and women: 1)        Be Open Minded : The number one rule we have heard from both sides of the fence is to go into every date with an open mind. Your ideal partner, based on your personal checklist, may be completely different from the person that you could be truly compatible with. Everyone has this warped sense of who their perfect partner should be, but when interviewing countless older couples who have been married for more than 50 years – their life partners were completely different from the person they initially imagined. 2)        Don’t Research Before a First Date : In these days of Google and Facebook, it’s easy to be t...

More than one-third of adults in the United States are obese. In fact, the furor over obesity, which some have termed an “epidemic,” has reached such proportions that one big-city mayor has gone about banning large-sized, sugary soft drinks and the First Lady has been on a crusade to control the dietary offerings in public schools. Even many adults who do not fit the clinic definition of obese are still overweight, and a large percentage are looking for the best ways to lose weight. Shedding pounds largely comes down to the two-pronged factors of diet and exercise. Not modifying the first one enough, and not getting enough of the second one, ends up giving the individual a recipe for being overweight.  Conditions related to obesity include heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Counseling someone to eat less and exercise more might be the simplest advice possible, but it’s also, partiall...

Most people who think they have the flu, don’t. And some people who think they have a cold, really have the flu. So what is the difference between a cold and the flu? And does it matter? A cold is a mild illness that resolves without treatment. It is a combination of some or all of the following: sneezing, a runny and then blocked nose, a sore or scratchy throat, cough, low-grade fever, headache and malaise. Doctors often refer to a cold as an upper respiratory tract infection or URTI (pronounced   er-tee ). They are very common – on average, you can expect three per year. There are at least 200 different viral subtypes that cause colds – the commonest by far are   rhinoviruses   which are responsible for at least 40%; others include   coronaviruses ,   respiratory syncytial virus   (RSV), metapneumovirus   and   parainfluenza   viruses. Following a cold, the small airways in the lungs become “hyper-reactive”. This can trigger an a...
